The "red" section of the Court of Rome: another migrant compensated with 18,000 euros
The Court of Rome has ordered the Italian government to compensate a Pakistani migrant with 18,000 euros, citing inhumane treatment and violations of asylum rights during his deportation process.
The Civil Section of the Court of Rome has made headlines following a recent ruling by Judge Corrado Bile, which mandates the Italian government to pay a sum of 700 euros to a migrant detained in a CPR center in Albania. This decision raises questions regarding the migration policies and the legal judgements made by specific sections of the court. The judge’s ruling comes amid scrutiny of how the Italian authorities manage migrants, particularly those with criminal backgrounds.
Another noteworthy decision from the same court section involves an 18,000-euro compensation awarded to a Pakistani migrant. This ruling was issued by Damiana Colla, who determined that the migrant's deportation from Italy to Slovenia—followed by a subsequent rejection to Bosnia—constituted inhumane treatment and violated his asylum rights. The court acknowledged that the migrant had initially entered Italy in 2018 from Slovenia under a legal framework, yet he was not granted the adequate protections required by international law during his deportation.
These decisions from the Court of Rome highlight the complex intersection of Italian immigration law and human rights. They also reflect ongoing debates in Italy regarding the treatment of migrants, especially concerning the legal responsibilities of the government in safeguarding human rights versus its obligations to enforce immigration law. The rulings may foster greater scrutiny over Italy’s treatment of migrants and potential ramifications for the government on both legal and social fronts.
